Guberna SME

GUBERNA for SME’s 

Your SME is growing and we like to offer a helping hand. We do this by making various online tools available for your SME to get started, such as the 'Governance Maturity Scan'. 

In addition, your SME members can rely on specialised publications, free benchmark studies of fees, and open board mandates.

Governance Maturity Scan

Governance Maturity Scan

Map out the challenges facing your SME through the GUBERNA Governance Maturity Scan. Based on a short questionnaire (which only takes about 15 minutes), this tool gives you a clear overview of the challenges your SME faces and explains how governance can help you address these challenges. 

​​Your SME members, through this membership, can benefit from this service completely free of charge.
